The Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy The Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy The Rosary and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy are both mantras, which are prayers based on repetition. The mantra becomes a constant companion, reminding you of your steadfast relationship with God and helping you navigate all the distractions your mind and heart may be prone to. By using a mantra, you can tap into and even expand your inner resources of peace, patience, strength, and faithfulness. A mantra can be repeated silently as you go about your regular activities. There are an amazing number of opportunities for this prayer practice during a day, such as while standing in the elevator, in your car, on a walk, or while waiting. All you need is about 20 minutes to pray either the Rosary or the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. The Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy are prayed with the aid of rosary beads, but both can be prayed without. One difference in method between the two is that the Rosary has a focus for each decade, called “the mysteries,” which are significant events in the life of Jesus. Each decade of 10 beads is focused on one of the mysteries, a source of meditation during the mantra. Both the Rosary and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy can be offered for particular intentions. Praying the Chaplet of the Divine Mercy takes only a few short minutes wherein we acknowledge God as our Merciful Savior, acknowledge God as our source of life, acknowledge our own sinfulness, intercede for the world, pray for God's saving help, and reflect on Jesus' passion and resurrection that opened up a whole avenue of Mercy for us.

Make the Sign of the Cross 2. Say the Apostles’ Creed I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. 3. Pray the Our Father Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen. 4. Pray the Hail Mary 3 times Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen. 5. Pray the Glory Be (The Doxology) Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. 6. In both the Rosary and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, a prayer is prayed 10 times, once on each small bead, which equals 1 decade: Rosary – Pray the Hail Mary 10 times (once on each small bead) Divine Mercy – Pray “For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world” 10 times (once on each small bead) 7. At the end of each decade, on the large bead: Rosary – Pray the Glory Be and the Our Father Divine Mercy – Pray the Eternal Father prayer Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world. 8. When at the end of the 5th decade, conclude with: Rosary – Pray the Hail Holy Queen prayer Hail, holy Queen, mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To you we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to you we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us; and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Divine Mercy – Pray the Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One prayer 3 times Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world. Page 2 of 2.

  • Faith in Laity Corner
    Christ Our Hope Catholic Church -------------Faith in Laity Corner Monday, April 04, 2016 2nd Week of Easter Mercy, In Mercy Year This year our Holy Father, has declared this 2015- 2016 as the Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy. It was to help us focus on what is the meaning of mercy and how can we become a people of mercy. Over the past few months we the faithful should be able to “show evident signs of God’s presence and closeness.” (Pope Francis, Bull of Indiction, Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, 2015) His Holiness goes on to say “It is a year to touched by the Lord Jesus and to be transformed by His mercy, so that we may become witnesses to His mercy.” (Pope Francis, Bull of Indiction, Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, 2015) The words echo the magisterium of the Catholic Church pointing the way to … ”Show herself a loving mother to all; patient, kind, moved to compassion and goodness towards her separated children.” (Pope Francis, Bull of Indiction, Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, 2015) As we celebrate the Feast of Divine Mercy we are moved by the number of times Jesus demonstrated – mercy this wonderful trait to the woman at the well, the Roman centurion officer, to the thief on the Cross, to the rich young man, in the story of the prodigal son… and the incidents are many. “We want to live this year of Jubilee in the light of the Lord’s words: ‘Merciful like the Father (theme), … to be capable of mercy, we must first of all dispose ourselves to listen to the Word of God.

  • DEFINING MOMENTS Preparation for Sunday of Divine Mercy 2020
    DEFINING MOMENTS Preparation for Sunday of Divine Mercy 2020 Preparation for Sunday of Divine Mercy Defining Moments INTRODUCTION “Let no one doubt concerning the goodness of God; even if a person’s sins were as dark as night, God’s mercy is stronger than our misery. One thing alone is necessary: that the sinner set ajar the door of his heart, be it ever so little, to let in a ray of God’s merciful grace, and then God will do the rest.”1 -Saint Faustina This week, we prepare to celebrate the Sunday of Divine Mercy. Perhaps now more than ever, we need the reminder that God’s “mercy endures forever” (Psalm 118:1). This feast day is a celebration of the superabundance of grace that Christ offers us—an ocean of divine mercy that is greater than any sin. When Saint John Paul II canonized St. Faustina Kowalska in 2000, he proclaimed the Second Sunday of Easter to be Divine Mercy Sunday, from that point forward. During St. Faustina’s lifetime, she spent time with Jesus, gaining insight into the depths of His merciful love for mankind. Her diary spoke of Jesus’ desire to be a refuge and shelter for our souls. Her words were a balm to people who had become afraid of God and over- whelmed by their own sins and failures. Interestingly, St. Faustina could be very hard on herself. If you read her diary, you’ll discover a woman who had early struggles to see herself through the eyes of God. Time and time again, Jesus patiently taught her that His love and mercy were limitless.

  • Afterword a Mother's Plea: Journey Into the Light by Fr. S. Seraphim
    Afterword A Mother's Plea: Journey Into the Light by Fr. S. Seraphim Michalenko, MIC For over 20 years, I had the privilege of being the vice-postulator for the canonization cause of the first saint of this new millennium, St. Maria Faustina Kowalska. In light of my familiarity with the urgent message of The Divine Mercy that God entrusted to this saint, Father Anthony Buś, the author of A Mother's Plea, requested that I serve as a theological advisor in his mission to respond to what he perceives to be Our Lady's call to build the Sanctuary of The Divine Mercy at St. Stanislaus Kostka Parish in Chicago. In an effort to evaluate the authenticity of this mission, I read A Mother's Plea and discovered fascinating parallels between the story that has been unfolding in this inner-city parish and St. Faustina's perseverance in receiving and spreading the message of The Divine Mercy throughout the world. I believe that these parallels or connections are signs of God's providence that can encourage each of us -- even as we experience difficulties -- to see Jesus, The Divine Mercy, and His mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, very much alive in our lives and our world. Readers of these reflections should be prepared for a life-changing encounter with the living God. This is God's Work, Not Ours After the sacred image of Jesus, The Divine Mercy -- revealed in a vision to St. Maria Faustina Kowalska on February 22, 1931, in the city of Plock, Poland -- was finally painted by June of 1934, it was hidden in the corner of a dim cloister corridor.
